How to be a good listener in French
What are accepted French words to respond while listening to another person speak to show that you are listening and interested in what they are saying? For example in English I might say "sure" or "okay" or even "uh-huh" during a long explanation just to keep them talking until the end.

Question

Answer

On dit aussi "ok", "d'accord", "ah oui" ou "oui" ou "c'est ça"  -  ça dépend du contexte.

Answer

It depends on the situation. If you're talking with friends or colleagues you can also use the same sounds "uh" or "uh-huh" with a different pronunciation than in american english.. More simple to say it than to write it :-)
